8 more days to go.....The closer I get the more I think about being scared....I've picked up all my supplies I'll need except my shower chair and toilet seat riser. I plan on ordering that online today since Walmart didn't have them. Can somebody tell me how was the surgery center in Rockville? We're the staff nice? Did anyone need to purchase a compression garment? I would like to have at least 3 garments but I don't know what size I would need or what kind...HELP!!!!

Well I've kinda been out of mission for the last week. I don't deal with pain well so getting online and stuff was not on my mind.... I still have one last tube and I'm praying it comes out on Tuesday, doing EXTRA prayer. I feel great though and a little working out and scar cream I feel I'm gonna loveeeeee my experience. Here's a picture I just took tonight.
